Pulmonary Hypertension on Prognosis of Acute Myocardial Infarction Patients With Reduced Left Ventricular Function (STIMULATE)

Pulmonary Hypertension on Prognosis of Acute Myocardial Infarction Patients With Reduced Left Ventricular Function (STIMULATE): A Single-center, Retrospective Cohort Study

Pulmonary hypertension (PH) has a negative effect on acute myocardial infarction (AMI) patients and appears to be closely associated with reduced left ventricular function. However, its impact on AMI patients with reduced left ventricular function remains unclear. This retrospective study included AMI patients with reduced left ventricular function to investigate the prognostic value of PH in this specific type of patient. Meanwhile, a nomogram would be established basing on the identified independent risk factors, hoping to provide a novel risk stratification for them.

Cohorts and Interventions

Group / Cohort
Intervention / Treatment
Pulmonary hypertension (PH) group
The PH group comprised of patients with systolic pulmonary artery pressure (sPAP) ≥ 35mmHg measured by echocardiology.
This was an observational study, and no Intervention was given to the patients.
Control group
The control group included patients with systolic pulmonary artery pressure (sPAP) <35mmHg measured by echocardiology.
This was an observational study, and no Intervention was given to the patients.

Time Frame: 1-year after the AMI.
All-cause death will be determined by clinical records or phone calls with patients and their family.
1-year after the AMI.
